Simultaneous advancement of soft power and hard power; this is the dual path emphasized by Shen Shi.
Soft power is hard to gauge.
But the effects on hard power are still quite evident, which is also Shen Shi's greatest confidence.
Imagine if human civilization could reach the B-level in major technological domains without relying on the Es civilization's support. If that were the case, would the gratitude, obedience, and sense of identification humans have towards the Es civilization be as strong?
The answer is clear.
Strength in oneself inevitably brings stronger cultural confidence!
At this moment, Shen Shi holds more than two thousand key technologies of B-level advancement!
